Take Me To The Land of Hell Lyrics

[Chorus]
Blood river
Blood river
Moonlight spread on my hard bed
I saw your eyes in my sleep
Your gaze was deep and I knew
Your gaze was deep and I knew

[Chorus]
Blood river
Blood river
Take me to the land of hell
Where you and I meet soul-to-soul
To never be apart again

[Verse 2]
Our cord was cut by the universe
We floated away with each others’ hearts
I went east and you went west
Flying around, our memory of birth
Flying around, our memory of birth

[Chorus]
Blood river
Blood river
Take me to the land of hell
Where you and I meet eye-to-eye
To never be apart again
[Bridge]
You’re my curse
I’m your noose
Raise me gently
Burn the hearth
Raise me gently
Burn the hearth
In a nowhere land in the universe

[Chorus]
Blood river
Blood river
Take me to the land of hell
Where you and I meet soul-to-soul
To never be apart again

[Verse 2]
I’ll bury you with my hand
In the distant sand
We’ll hold each other and never leave again
I hear your heartbeat to the end of life
I hear your heartbeat to the end

[Chorus]
Blood river
Blood river
Take me to the land of hell
Where you and I meet eye-to-eye
To never be apart again
[Chorus]
Blood river
Blood river
Take me to the land of hell
Where you and I meet soul-to-soul
To never be apart again

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
